Reflectionbot
recommended: observeReflectionbot is a web crawler operated by Reflection that collects website content to train its open AI models.
What it does
Reflectionbot tends to make broad, high-volume sweeps that fetch far more pages per visit than a search crawler. Timing is unpredictable: traffic may remain heavy throughout a collection pass, then stop entirely.
How to identify it

User-agent: Reflectionbot
Allow: /Block entirely
User-agent: Reflectionbot
Disallow: /
